Here are the best trolls of week eight.
California 21, North Carolina 18
Golden Bears defeated Tar heels thanks to late defensive play. At the California 13-yard line, the North Carolina defender Gio Lopez associated with Nathan Leacock for a catch and run that looked like it would lead to a touchdown.
However, Cal defends himself Brent Austin kicked the ball out and the Bears jumped on him to take possession. Cal managed to get its fifth win of the season.
The Tar Heels' mascot, Ramses, became the target of a Golden Bears troll who concluded it was “bear territory.”
